Downloading configuration from the MSIsafesoft
con-
figuration software
The configuration, including the device configuration, is created in the MSIsafesoft configura-
tion software as a project. Once finished, load the configuration in the MSI 100 or MSI 200
safety module. This data is usually transmitted via the USB interface of the safety module.
To download the configuration, proceed as follows:
1. Ensure the following:
–
The safety module is switched on.
–
The MSIsafesoft configuration software is installed on the configuration computer
(this installation also includes the required drivers).
–
The MSIsafesoft configuration software is started.
–
A AC-MSI-CFG1 memory module is plugged into the safety module. The configura-
tion cannot otherwise be loaded.
2. Connect the USB cable to the safety module (Mini-USB connector, 5-pin, maximum cable
length 3 m) and to a USB port on the PC.
WARNING: Risk of injury or damage to equipment due to unintentional system states
or incorrect responses
The safety module is in the commissioning phase, i.e., unintentional system states or incor-
rect responses cannot be ruled out. Operation is not safe.
•
Make sure that the act of triggering the safety demand will not pose a risk for people or
materials.
•
Do not enter any hazardous areas and ensure that no other persons can access the
danger zone either.
Alternatively, the configuration can also be loaded by inserting a AC-MSI-CFG1 memory
module that contains the relevant data.
For further information, please refer to "Loading the configuration using the AC-MSI-CFG1
memory module" on page 84.
The memory requirements of the MSI100/200 system are influenced mainly by the following
factors:
•
The number of digital I/O extension modules used
•
The number of function modules used
•
The type of function modules used
•
The number of flags used
•
The extent of user comments in the program
In the case of very complex logic programs, our service department can provide you with
support in optimizing memory use (see "Safety hotline" on page 14).
ATTENTION: Electrostatic discharge
The safety modules contain components that can be damaged or destroyed by electrostatic
discharge. When handling the USB interface, observe the necessary safety measures
against electrostatic discharge (ESD) according to EN 61340-5-1 and EN 61340-5-1.
